Question S Class Trouble

Please has any body got any ideas as to why my 2000, S430L cuts out.
I've had a diagnostic computer on which showed nothing. the car starts and will run for about 10-15 min then cuts out. The power to the fuel pump is isolated and there is no spark. I have put a live wire straight to the fuel pump but the car would still not start. I have been told it may be the ECU. Again any ideas ????

Default S Class now working

For everyone interested I managed to track the fault down to the crank shaft speed sensor. New one fitted costing just £47 and back up and running.

Just need to get the rust treated and painted, then decide if to sell her or not.
